  1. The trips were worse than jet lag, for me. Short and long flights in economy, up to 13 hours. Then long delays in airports, bad food. Delays, lost luggage... West or east, the same. Three days max, I was fine.

    Very good point !

    If jet-lag is your main concern, it means the trip was otherwise perfect.

    A lost baggage is worse than 5 jet-lags.

    I can't separate the trip from jet lag. The problems are almost all from the trip.

  2. Those that have always relied on someone else for a wage at the end of the month and clocked in and out for the last 25 years will struggle here and anywhere else they decide to retire or semi retire to as it just isn't in their nature to look after themsleves.

    No matter what your academic background is, how many A levels or Master's Degree's, being self employed, mostly if not all your life in your home country will undoubtedly help you immensely if you decide to live abroad whether you work or not once you get there.

    Maybe you're right, but I doubt it. I see no connection regarding retirement, between wage-earners and self-employed. No connection, IMHO.
  3. If you call us Septics, we call you Shittish. It's American humor. Not funny? Neither is Septic.

    Missing the point, understandably, rhyming slang is not intended to insult anyone, hard to explain if you haven't grown up with it.

    When we call Americans septics it isn't meant to be funny and doesn't need a semi-insult as a response, although I can understand how you might think it does :)

    Insults are not measured by the one hurling it. 'Rhyming slang' directed in an unfavorable manner toward others makes you Shittish.

  4. A Bible lesson on gay sex from a Christian poster who has a degree in Christianity, and has studied the subject more than most Christian ex-spurts...

    There are only two verses, located in a fulfilled book of the Old Testament which is not binding on Christians, in the entire Bible, on the subject. Those verses state that it is righteous for a good Jew to insert his penis inside all the mouths and all the anuses of all his many wives and concubines. The Hebrew word toevah means ritually impure, and includes overeating, which many evangelists have done.

    Sodomites should define inhabitants of the village of Sodom. including women and children. Every adult male of Sodom from his bar mitzah to age 120, including great-grandfathers, wanted to rape strangers, male or female. God killed them for being inhospitable.

    Jesus never mentioned gay sex, and Paul probably didn't, either. Liars and gossips shall not enter the kingdom of heaven, nor those who hate their enemies. The main ethic of Christianity is love.

    With love,
